A new neuroscience study reveals a specific brain circuit that suppresses the urge to act when tasks are stressful or unpleasant, offering fresh insight into why getting started can feel so difficult—and what this means for mental health.

Researchers have developed dissolving microneedle patches that deliver living ‘biofertilizer’ directly into plant tissue. Choy Sum and Kale grew faster while using over 15 % less biofertilizer than standard soil inoculation.

A new review outlines how electrochemical technologies could address one of nuclear energy’s key environmental challenges: the selective removal of toxic, mobile uranyl ions from wastewater and seawater.

A new 3.7-million-pound study aims to improve the detection of dangerous volcanic eruptions. The study will investigate what drives dangerous escalations in volcanic activity, and how scientists can better detect them before they threaten lives.

A comprehensive new meta-analysis provides reassurance for expectant parents: based on data from more than 40 high-quality studies, researchers found no evidence that paracetamol use during pregnancy increases the risk of autism, ADHD or intellectual disability in children, reinforcing current medical guidance on its safe use.

A new study has revealed the direct role the gut microbiome plays in shaping differences in the way the brain functions across different primate species. It further mentions that changes to the gut microbiome can change the way the brain works.

Under a strategic collaboration with Nvidia, Thermo Fisher Scientific will make use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to advance scientific instrumentation and accelerate laboratory performance.

A new field study sheds light on how polymer-coated fertilizers contribute to marine microplastic pollution, showing that most plastic capsules washed from agricultural fields are carried into rivers and ultimately “go missing” in the ocean.

A study has revealed that hyperemesis gravidarum, a severe form of nausea that occurs during pregnancy, is linked to depression. It further states that it occurs in 0.3 to 3.6 percent of all pregnancies and is the most common cause of hospitalization in the first trimester of pregnancy.

A new study challenges decades-old assumptions about the physics of foams, revealing that bubbles continue to reorganize internally even as the material appears solid. Strikingly, the underlying mathematics mirrors how modern artificial intelligence systems learn.
